Chapter 1250

"But looking at them now, it's as if... as if they are charging at the giant gate."

"The giant gate..."

The soldiers did not know what madness had taken these bulls.

Everything about this was abnormal.

The suddenly appearing unknown liquid.

And now, these crazed wild bulls.

The soldier who had gone down to observe the liquid earlier suddenly had a flash of insight.

"General Zhao, these wild bulls might have been attracted by something."

"Otherwise, it's impossible for them to charge directly like this."

"It's possible... it might be that red, unknown liquid!"

The soldier held out the palm that had been stained red and sniffed it again.

Commandant Zhao grabbed the soldier's palm and brought it close to take a look.

"Are you saying that because of this liquid, those wild bulls are charging over?"

The soldier nodded: "General Zhao, think about it, this liquid appeared inexplicably on the giant gate."

"Now the wild bulls have charged over; if there's nothing wrong with this liquid, I really can't find any other problem."

The soldier said confidently, then slapped his forehead.

"I know what this is!"

"No wonder the smell was so familiar."

"I felt this thing was familiar earlier, and now I've finally remembered."

The soldier shouted excitedly.

"Stop talking nonsense, speak quickly, what is this?"

Commandant Zhao hurried to ask; he also wanted to know what this stuff was.

"This red liquid is called Dragon-Delaying Scent; legend says it is the blood of a dragon, and any animal that touches it will go mad."

"The main thing is that the crazed animals will charge at the Dragon-Delaying Scent, relentless to the death!"

"It must be that someone smeared this Dragon-Delaying Scent on those wild bulls, and our giant gate was also stained with it."

"That is why those wild bulls are charging at the giant gate, aiming to use the bulls' strength to smash it open!"

Commandant Zhao was dumbfounded by these words.

Was it really that fantastical?

Even the surrounding soldiers were stunned by this statement.

Was there really such a thing as Dragon-Delaying Scent?

Why had they never heard of it?

The soldier smiled bitterly; he had only heard the old folks talk about it.

He grew up at the border and had heard the village elders mention it in the past.

He had also been fortunate enough to encounter it once, which was why he found the smell so familiar.

He never expected to encounter this Dragon-Delaying Scent again after so many years.

"General Zhao, wake up, stop staring blankly."

"Hurry and shoot them down, otherwise the power of this impact might damage the giant gate."

Commandant Zhao finally came to his senses.

With dozens or hundreds of wild bulls charging, the giant gate might really be damaged if he wasn't careful.

"All archers, prepare!"

"Aim at the wild bulls and start shooting!"

"Annihilate them all!"

Once Commandant Zhao reacted, he immediately issued the order.

He did not want any accidents to happen while he was on guard duty.

The surrounding soldiers also reacted at this moment.

Super divine crossbows, bed crossbows, and foot-drawn crossbows were all aimed at the wild bulls below.

But by now, the wild bulls were already very close to the giant gate.

Only then did they clearly see that those wild bulls were likely truly mad.

All the bulls had blood-red eyes, revealing a fierce glint.

It seemed that in the bulls' eyes, there was only the Dragon-Delaying Scent on the giant gate.

The soldiers fired the arrows in their hands one after another.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...!

Dense swarms of arrows shot toward the wild bulls like lightning.

The sound of blades piercing flesh rose one after another.

Soon, over a dozen wild bulls were wounded by arrows and fell to the ground.

But because the momentum of the charge was so fierce,

even when the bulls fell, they slid forward for a while before stopping.

Some bulls that hadn't been hit by arrows were even tripped by the bulls that had fallen in front.

A large patch of wild bulls fell instantly.

The scene was truly spectacular.

But there were also some wild bulls that could continue running after being hit by arrows.

As long as it wasn't a fatal blow or a hit to the bull's leg, they would continue to charge.

Just then.

Boom!

A muffled sound rang out.

One wild bull surged past all the others.

Its entire body leaped into the air.

It slammed directly into the giant gate.

This loud noise was caused by the bull's impact.

The soldiers standing atop the Great Wall felt the vibration.

It was as if they were standing on a bronze cauldron being struck by a giant hammer.

Fortunately, this vibration was not very intense.

The giant gate also moved slightly.

It was a good thing this giant gate was sturdy enough.

If it were an ordinary gate, it might have really been smashed to pieces.

If dozens of wild bulls all came to charge once,

this giant gate would definitely be broken.

Looking at that bull, its entire head had shattered.

Blood flowed all over the ground, and the bull lay on the ground with its limbs spasming.

Soon, it stopped moving.

"Quick! Fire arrows!"

Commandant Zhao shouted.

The previous volley of arrows had eliminated most of the wild bulls.

But there were still about ten wild bulls charging up.

If the giant gate were struck too many times, there was no guarantee it wouldn't break.

If the giant gate were broken, the trouble would be huge.

The soldiers did not dare to be careless and fired arrows rapidly.

The vibration from that impact was not insignificant.

If it happened a few more times, it would be very bad.

They were afraid this giant stone gate would be smashed by the wild bulls.
